Areas/Tilesets: Individual tile control

nwfan87

Is there anyway in the toolset that you can specify which specific tiles are used when drawing landscape? I've always known it to be preprogrammed at random, so if you want to use a specific tile, you have to cycle through each tile until you get to the one you want. Would be cool if you could put down all the same tiles, imagine the time saved...

Perhaps... a suggestion for a future update?...

Shift-Rclick to cycle through versions of a tile without randomness, then copy-and-paste.

Copying 2x2 or larger groups helps to fill a uniform area quickly.

If the same tile will be used in many areas, consider making a reference area from which you can copy the desired tile every time.

In theory, you can edit the .set and .itp files to make copies of a tile available as a feature, but that quickly becomes very messy in all but the simplest cases.

@Proleric As they say, to the victor goes the spoils. That works perfect! That is going to save a heap of time!
